The view of the Eiffel Tower from the bridge in last week’s post. The water is the River Seine.
France
Hold your Horses
How is it September already??
This statue of a horse and rider is on a bridge over the Seine with a view of the Eiffel Tower. You can see the front edge of our private car behind the TARDIS.
Lion
This Paris statue reminds me of Aslan and Lucy from The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. Maybe it was the inspiration for it?
Arch of Beauty
We saw so many beautiful carvings, statues, arches, and other works of art just…out. In the middle of the city. It was incredible.
The Louvre
I knew that the Louvre was considered one of the biggest museums of art in the world, but I wasn’t prepared for just HOW big that meant. We couldn’t see the full size of the building on this day, but the Seine cruise the night before really showcased the immensity of the building.
And this? This is just the entrance.
Breathtaking.
The Pyramid
While we did not take the time to stand in line to get into the Louvre, we did want to see the famous pyramid outside. Definitely worth it.
Ferris Wheel
When I think of Ferris Wheels, I think of the London Eye, fairs, and theme parks. It was cool to see one in Paris as well.
